Volunteer Appreciation Day (Emcee Script)

Sabtu lepas, merupakan pengalaman pertama saya mengacarakan majlis dalam Bahasa Inggeris sepenuhnya. Saya punya debaran tu tak payahlah nak cakap. Tahu jelah, jemputan majlis ni kebanyakan orang besar-besar dari sektor koprat, bank dan lain-lain. Yang si datuk datin ni pun ada pulak masa dia orang nak attend majlis ni. Selalu kalau buat skrip emcee, last minute baru saya buat sebab dah biasa. Tapi kali ni... Awal lagi saya dah prepare. Mana taknya, walaupun bahasanya simple, saya ni bukan hebat sangat dalam Bahasa Inggeris, takut perkataan tu tak sopan, takut ayat ni tak manis. Ada kerabat lagi kan. Takut patik dibuatnya. Hari buat script ni bersahabatlah saya dengan IPhone, sebenarnya bersahabat dengan dictionary dalam IPhone ni. Takut punya fasal, perkataan mudah yang saya dah tahu maksudpun saya nak double check dengan dictionary. Yelah, orang bagi tanggungjawab, kenalah buat sehabis baik. Biar semuanya OK. Dah siap buat script tu, siap hantar pada orang yang teror English ni untuk buat proof read dan editing. Lepas tu buat pembetulan. Kemudian, baca lancarkan sebutan siap dengan nada dan slang. Praktis sebut dengan sebutan yang betul. Belajar dekat komputer dan IPhone macam mana nak sebut sesuatu perkataan tu dengan sebutan betul. Tak puas hati, call pulak somebody x-English teacher, latih baca depan dia, minta dia tegur sebutan dan nada saya supaya betul. Entah berapa kali entah saya ulang baca skrip sendiri sampailah hari kejadian. So, kat sini saya paparkan skrip tersebut. Manalah tahu kalau boleh membantu orang lain. Buatlah perubahan supaya ia lebih baik. Mana yang elok, jadikanlah rujukan.

There are synics out there who will say that true altruism is a myth, that it doesn’t exist and that nobody is capable of doing anything unless they are motivated by their own self-interest in the end. But, even the most embittered synics would be hard-pressed to explain why anyone in there right mind would make the choice to travel to the poorist parts of the world, where hunger, sickness and war ravage the population and death is as commonplace as life, to help care for orphane children. Or why a comfortable middle-class citizen would choose to his or her afternoons teaching neglected teenages how to read in the dirtiest, most gang-ridden part of town. Or why many peoples sacrifice their time, spen their money and use their energy to empower visual impaired person’s life in many aspects. Volunteers come in all shapes and sizes, but they are all the real-life saints and superheroes of this world. Although they don’t ask to be paid for all of their selfless work, they definitely deserve our utmost respect and appreciation, which is exactly what volunteer Appreciation Day is all about.
